Lipid MRI in plant science: principles and potential areas of application.
Review in Journal of experimental botany, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), long established in medical diagnostics, offers powerful, non-invasive capabilities for visualizing physiological processes in intact plants. This review focuses on the principles, recent advances, and future prospects of MRI-based lipid analysis in plant science with a particular focus on seeds. Cutting-edge, spatially resolved MRI has uncovered a remarkable compartmentation of lipid metabolism and storage. Lipid distribution patterns reflect the tissue- and cell-specific functional roles of lipids and are shaped by local metabolite gradients and other regulatory factors, including biomechanical and environmental stimuli. Recent innovations in MRI methodology now allow comprehensive, non-invasive monitoring of lipid storage and degradation dynamics in vivo. Looking ahead, the integration of MRI with deep learning and multimodal approaches heralds a transformative era for seed biology, oilseed phenotyping, and breeding.
